Brutal Prince (Brutal Birthright, 1)

They're a match made in Hell.
The Griffins and the Gallos have been battling for control of Chicago's underworld for generations. Their rivalry has always been flammable, but it reignites with a fury when Aida, the youngest and wildest Gallo sibling, crashes a party at the Griffin mansion and accidentally sets fire to the library. To stave off all-out war, her father quickly arranges a marriage between her and Callum Griffin, eldest son and heir to the Irish mafia.
Cold, ambitious, and brutal, Callum is determined to tame his headstrong new bride. But Aida is more than capable of giving as good as she gets--starting with poisoning Callum on their wedding night. The problem is, murdering him would be a lot easier if he didn't look so good while she was trying to do it.
She's got a lockbox around her heart. He's got something to prove.
In their struggle for dominance, who will go up in flames first?

I loved this book, and calling it just "love" would be an understatement—it exceeded all my expectations! 😊
Aida was feisty, fiery, and incredibly lovable. I admired how she held her own with Callum, making her one of my favourite main characters. (I especially enjoyed the strawberry kiss scene! 😏)
Callum was broody and uptight, and he initially disliked the idea of being married to Aida. However, as they connected and worked together, he softened and relaxed around her.
The character development added depth to the story, and I would rate the plot a 10/10.
I am genuinely excited to read more in this series and Sophie Lark's other works.
I am genuinely in love with this book & its characters, it’s marked down from 5 stars because it’s rather predictable- typical arranged mafia wedding, it was always going to end the way that it did but I enjoyed it none the less
{can’t remember the date’s but somewhere between July and now}
